Happy 427th Birthday, New Mexico National Guard!
My state's National Guard predates the United States itself by quite a bit: April 30th, 1598
Who immigrated?
If the fist 100 days of the Trump 2.0 era have taught us nothing else, it's that DHS, ICE, and the Migrant Carceral Complex, all built by bipartisan hands, represent the tools to create a turnkey dictatorship for any president willing to seize them; and thus they should all go.

"The reality is that a police state and vast carceral complex built to target migrants, can just as easily be repurposed by a fascist government to target the regime’s political opposition. Either we make our stand against fascism here, on the issue of immigration justice, or the rest of us will surely fall under that same machinery of oppression in due time. Both the Department of Homeland Security and ICE were built under false pretenses by governments who were violating our civil rights; they are “solutions” in search of a problem, and under Trump anyone who opposes fascism has become that problem."

"The Senate finance committee will consider Scott’s nomination on Wednesday. Before the hearing, James Wong, a former deputy assistant commissioner of CBP’s office of internal affairs, wrote to the committee’s top Democrat this week with 'concern' about Scott’s handling of the investigation into the 2010 death of Anastasio Hernández Rojas in San Diego, after he was beaten and tased by CBP agents who were preparing to deport him."
"Rodney Scott, Donald Trump’s nominee to lead Customs and Border Protection (CBP), has been accused by a former top official of orchestrating a 'cover-up' over the death of a man detained while trying to enter the country from Mexico, according to a letter obtained by the Guardian."

A FEDERAL LEO *MUST* PROVIDE FEDERAL ID UPON REQUEST, BY LAW. If they fail to do so, they are there ILLEGALLY, and not under ANY protection of Federal statutes. They are basically armed thugs, trespassing, and EVERY self-defense measure, UP TO AND INCLUDING LETHAL FORCE is afforded by Law.

"I don’t want to live in a country where this is a common fear for Ms of ppl.
I think most Americans agree with me on this, which is partly why Trump’s approval ratings on #immigration keep falling."

ONE case is one too many, and certainly "enough".
